Notes: The ROCK WREN has now become so conspicuous and friendly
that non-birding hill users have started pointing it out to me...
A WESTERN FLYCATCHER was in the morning migrant flock of (mostly)
TOWNSEND'S WARBLERS. I was also greatly entertained by the ANNA'S
HUMMINGBIRD'S efforts at chasing away RUBY-CROWNED KINGLETS.

Mike Patterson When I despair, I remember
Astoria, OR that all through history
celata at pacifier.com the way of truth and love have always won.
There have been tyrants, and murderers,
and for a time they can seem invincible,
but in the end they always fall.
Think of it...always.
- Mahatma Gandhi
